Pros
When I joined there were concerns as leadership changes brought about other changes. Many complacent employees failed to let the ugly duckling period work itself out. The company is now poised for growth. As with any company you reach growing pains as you transition from a small shop to a larger one. That said, I think we are moving the right direction overall. The new CEO and the management team are all energetic and inspiring. The vision of company is becoming more clear and for those of us who didn't eat the marshmellow, it is a great place to work! I highly recommend Idera. Most of the people are happy to be here. The benefits are great for our size and there is money to be made for hard workers. I love that management trusts their employees and does not micro manage.
Cons
Growing pains and changes. The company is redefining itself. There is still some "fat" to trim from complacent employees. Some of the equipment/hardware/etc. is not the newest--it's not old, but not brand new and I think that is strange for a tech company.
